Chapter 51 Why don't we try!
Zhang Xiangwen talked about such old things with relish, and Tang Que was also immersed in listening to them, which was quite a bit like Wu Song in "Water Margin". "As a result, Zhao Laohu became famous. Not only did he get a silver reward from the ten taels of silver, but he also took this opportunity to be a servant. When he took office, the county immediately disappeared, and he became more and more respected. He first worked as a servant, then a general arrester, and then became a county lieutenant. However, although he became an official, his hot temperament had not changed at all. The name of Zhao Laohu was one of his hot temperament, and the other was the old story of his killing of the tiger back then."
"Single fights with tigers, Zhao Laohu is worthy of his reputation." Tang Que smiled and always felt a little awkward. After all, this person is the fourth uncle of the poisonous widow. She has such a bad temper and easy-to-protect relative, which may not be a good thing for him. Tang Quexin thought about this freely and smiled at himself again. This is too timid. If he really is with the poisonous widow, Zhao Laohu may not be able to treat him like that officer.
Seeing Tang Que laughing strangely, Zhang Xiangwen was very curious, "Brother, why are you laughing at?"
"Oh, nothing!" Tang Que didn't want Zhang Xiangwen to see anything, so he casually told what he saw in the yamen yesterday.
"Yes, Zhao Laohu has a very tough temper recently. Even my third uncle has been scolded by a few meals. He is loyal, good at protecting his subordinates, and has never heard of such things before. Speaking of which, the thieves and birds in Erlong Village are harming people." Zhang Xiangwen's third uncle is the current general arrest, so when he talks about the bandits in Erlong Mountain, he looks like he gritting his teeth.
"Why are there bandits in the peaceful and prosperous times? "For Tang Que, who traveled through time in later generations, bandits are really a very strange existence. Besides, in general history books, bandits only appear in troubled times. Now, the Tang Dynasty is booming, "Zhao Laohu is so powerful, can't he suppress them?"
"No matter how peaceful and prosperous the times, there are people who can't eat. Nothing is missing. You can't lack any bandits? Brother, you used to stay too small, so there are still few things you know! My third uncle said that the Erlong Village is actually not considered bandits. There are just some farmers who resist renting and go up the mountain with hoes, but there are only 78 people, and half of them are women and children. If you really want to fight, you don't have to hire any town soldiers in the state at all. My third uncle and his subordinates can clean up them."
Zhang Xiangwen looked contempt when talking about these bandits. Tang Que knew that there was still some text, so he didn't interrupt. He continued to talk.
Zhang Xiangwen was thirsty, so he pulled open the small drawer installed on the wall of the car, picked up a bottle of wine and poured it for a while, then stuffed the bottle into Tang Que's hand, and then said: "Although those bandits were useless, they occupied a good place. There were fields and water on the top of the peak. There were only one sheep intestine on the mountain and down the mountain, and at most three people could only accommodate three people in parallel. In this way, there were no fat people among the three people! There were thorny stones on both sides of the road, so they could not leave at all. I won't say that the road was narrow, but it was still very steep. Fortunately, the higher it was, the harder it was to go up. If you occupy such a terrain, you would not be able to surround it and you could not beat it. What do you think?"
Shannan is already mountainous, so it is not surprising that there are several such places. Upon hearing this, Tang Que could only shake his head and sigh: "There is really nothing to do. Erlong Village has all the advantages."
"Isn't that! It's nothing! It's not that they can't beat them down. After all, they are not a big deal. But what hates people is that these thieves have been particularly troubled since the second half of last year. Since then, County Magistrate Zhang has been urging him to make a fuss. Can Zhao Laohu's temper be better? Not to mention him, even my third uncle has broken many cups of tea during this period. The day before yesterday, I still have nowhere to scatter my third aunt, and it makes the family uneasy."
Tang Que heard what Zhang Xiangwen said interestingly, and when he was about to laugh, a thought came out in his heart. In the second half of last year, wasn’t that when County Magistrate Zhang just took office?
It was not far from the city, and he walked faster as he spoke. He arrived at Tang Que's residence in a short while. Zhang Xiangwen knew his foundation. Now it is inevitable that he would be strange to see that the house he lives in is small but has a good appearance.
After all, there is no name now, so Tang Que said vaguely, "The owner of the house has a close relationship with me, so he rented a cheap house for me to take care of me."
"I originally wanted to come and see my elder brother's residence and take you to my house by the way. Now it seems that this house is pretty good." With a smile, Zhang Xiangwen waved his hand and said, "You have something to do in the afternoon, it's getting late. I'll go home first and come and see your residence another day."
Although Tang Que and Zhang Xiangwen were together for a short time, they really liked his free and easy nature. They watched him walk away from the carriage and enter the house. As expected, Lan Jie'er did not eat and waited for him to come back.
"Why is it so late today?" Seeing him come back, Sister Lan hurriedly served the food, "I was about to let Gao Shun'er go to the county school to take a look."
"I made a sworn brother today." Tang Que smiled at this point, "He is quite a good person. His family has a Taoyuan in the south of the city. The flowers are in full bloom now. If you have time in the past two days, you will take you to have fun."
"Swedish brother?" Sister Lan was really stunned when she heard it.
Tang Que didn't say much because he was short of time. He just said a few words. After the meal, he just drank a cup of tea and rushed to the county government again.
As soon as he entered the county government, he was busy. As the matter at hand became more familiar, Tang Que had a new method. After thinking about it, he got up and left his seat to find Lao Liu, the swordsman who was in charge of the group.
Old Liu is over fifty years old this year, and he has served several county magistrates. When Tang Que joined the group yesterday, he called him Uncle Liu with others. "Uncle Liu, I have an idea here that may speed up the progress of our group..."
In fact, Tang Que's idea was not surprising, but it was just to change the current division of labor. Now it was divided according to the "li", from checking population, land, account books, rent, and mediocre, and adjustment of these procedures were indispensable. In short, the entire process was done. However, Tang Que thought of canceling the allocation method according to the "li" and changing it to the program. Decompose this group of people into each program, and each person was responsible for one program. This was just like teachers in later generations who changed college entrance examination papers, divided the labor according to the big questions and assembled homework.
"Uncle Liu, the advantage of doing this is that one person can focus on one matter. If the population is investigated, the population will be checked. If the land is checked, the land will be checked. In the end, as long as all the numbers can be matched. In this way, there is no need to review these case files back and forth, and one person can also be familiar with one matter. As the work becomes more mature, it will probably be faster and faster." This method has been used in later generations, and Tang Que naturally has confidence, "Uncle Liu, if you think it is appropriate, let's... try it?"
